Mommy's back to work

Well, the day has finally arrived: I had to return to work. I had a decent day, although I am now referred to as Bessie the Dairy Mom due to my constant (seemingly) trips to the nurse's office to express milk for my little Jolie. Jolie's first day without mom was a fussy one with very little sleep. Grandmom did report that Jolie "played" for about 40 minutes under her mobile, on her changing table, and her play mat.

The train crew was thrilled to see photos of Jolie, as were my students. It was nice to be back in the working world, but I did miss Joelle dearly, to the point of crying on the train on the way home. Stupid 1 1/2 hour commute!!! Today definitely has me rethinking my role as a volleyball coach. We'll see what happens...

Presidents' Day weekend is coming soon, as is spring break, so this transition back shouldn't be too bad. Hopefully Jolie agrees. I know that the grandmas are glad I'm back to work!!!
